Am I Just Not Looking In The Right Place?

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Where's all the gossip, self-mutual back-slapping, pictures and all round 'filling the rest of us in who couldn't get there' from Sunday night?

Very poor - or perhaps it was??? :?

rhombus were very loud and very cool. i played lots of ace stuff, as did fraser. i also managed a good few dances.

a few people were there, and they seemed to enjoy it.

pretty much it really. still waiting on phono paul to post the setlists on the sheepish.net forums because i didnt get a copy of it - and i pretty much winged it. i do recall playing izzy's drum n bass version of burn, and motorhead's capricorn fairly early on, with a goodly amount of old goff nonsense to follow it up with.

What he means is he stood at the back shouting things like "supersonic!" and now can't remember why :lol:
Have to say the djs were playing some damn fine choons! (The Glove?! Yowsa!) and the general feeling is "best Rhombus gig ever"
Possibly in part due to some of the following:
Guest riffage from Padstar :notworthy:
Guest... err... "vocals" from QB :innocent:
The three slightly over-excited dancing goths
The lovley lovley veneue
The new choons sounding fab live
The fact that goth music usually goes down best when played to goths (rather than drunk hippies in the classic rock bar *ahem!*)

Twas a great night.

Quiffy DJ'd with the kind of quality you'd expect from Pat Sharp!

Next time we play, maybe Quiffy would like to strap on a guitar and join us for a tune?
